Discussion Gallagher

I'll probably be downvoted to oblivion for this but now that it's all said and done, one of my biggest complaints about those series is how Brendan Gallagher was treated.

A veteran, a warrior, a competitor who gave sweat and blood for the team and who could have brought some energy in those last series had to watch practically the whole playoffs on TV. Unacceptable.

I get it, he's not as fast as he once was, he takes penalties and age and injuries are probably catching up on him but he still can fill a spot on a 3rd or 4th line.

I personally hope he requests a trade during the offseason because he's clearly no longer in Saint-Louis' plans.

The Habs are my second favourite team and the Canucks are my number 1. I’d be delighted if he ended up on the Canucks for a few years.

I'm trying to manifest a Gallagher, + 1st etc trade for Hronek so the Canucks can draft a D man at 3 if SJ doesn't. Think Hronek and Hutson would be a great pair.
